Selfridges PR firm relocates to former Simply Red nightclub

A PR agency which works with Selfridges, Cotton Traders and Bruntwood, is to relocate to new a former nightclub in Manchester which played host to the likes of Simply Red in the 1990s.

Carousel is to move its team from the Northern Quarter to Ducie House in Piccadilly Basin which used to be Home nightclub.

The 3,675sq ft space will provide the agency with an additional 1,000sq ft to accommodate its continuing growth.

The firm's other clients include Moda, LOL Surprise and Little Tikes which it has worked across festivals, the arts and live events for the likes of HOME, Van Gogh Alive, Bearded Theory, bluedot, Victorious and Camp Bestival.

Managing director Gawen Higgins said: "This office move is the culmination of a lot of people’s hard work and dedication."

"Thanks to the amazing efforts of the whole team, we’ve simply outgrown our current premises.

"They have delivered some incredible results in very difficult circumstances over the last couple of years.

"Many companies and agencies have sought to shrink or dispose of their physical office space altogether following the pandemic but we are 100% committed to having a place where the whole team can come together, work together, support each other and continue to deliver the excellent results Carousel is known for.

"We feel being back in the office is not only good for personal development and effective mentoring but also a fun and supportive place that is good for everyone’s wellbeing.

"We are also committed to a proper work/life balance and as such are continuing our very successful hybrid model of split office and home working.

"Ducie House has a lot to offer. We love its character, its original features and its industrial history not to mention its former life as a nightclub that I used to frequent back in the day.

"We have even reinstated the bar that seems to have gone down well. We’re all excited for the move and the future of Carousel."
